Jason writes: Roguelikes are a tricky thing. They ask you to pay close attention to every move, demanding the utmost caution so that one does not find themselves crippled before the journey has really begun. Then, when you have poured all of that sweat into a run, and find yourself having come all of that way just to be denied at the climax, they ask you to freely give up everything you’ve earned and start again. Balance and fairness, or at least a perception of them, is key to keep players engaged. Crypt of the Necrodancer is unique in the genre in that it can often fail in that challenge, yet still draw a player in on a simple yet ingenious gameplay twist.
Tis the season to be spooky, and so Rogueliker has gathered together a collection of roguelikes and roguelites that have fun being scary.
